Broster, Philip Diversity Studies Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 89-104). These findings seriously question the idea that sport promotes egalitarianism. The data reveals that the legacy of apartheid still means that access to sports such as 6-down touch rugby are available only to areas with particular facilities and to those that can afford it. It is not available for all. Sport itself is not magic-wand through which people naturally find it possible to put behind them societal differences. Differences from greater society are mirrored in sport and this was evident from my data. 2015-01-09T08:53:12Z 2015-01-09T08:53:12Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11827 eng application/pdf Department of Sociology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
